in love with...

oscar color inspiration

Anne Hathaway looked incredible last night with her gorgeous co-host, James Franco.  I thought they did a fantastic job - maybe her a little more than him in my opinion, but at least he looked good!  I also thought the awards were placed in the right hands for the most part.  But as always, I was paying more attention to what everyone was wearing and there were plenty of stunning ensembles to behold.  Although I'm sure most of you tuned in as well, I wanted to share some of my favorites today and have paired each one with a room that could be inspired by these beautiful dresses.  I hope you enjoy!

ds: before & after

I love watching things get made over... the before, the after, the whole process in between.  One of Design Sponge's latest Before & After posts shows the transition of an attic from a dark, gloomy storage space to a bright white writing room.  I'm loving the white washed floors, the paneled ceiling, the new skylights, and the beautiful white day bed... what a difference!

october, month of pink

My fiance and I are participating in the Avon Walk for Breast Cancer this weekend.  We will be walking a total of 39.3 miles over the course of two days in honor of his mother, Sandi, whom we lost in February to the disease.  October is Breast Cancer Awareness Month, the month of rememberance, the month to honor the ones we have loved and lost and the month to stand up and fight with those who are in the middle of their battle.  It is also the month of pink.  Below are some gorgeous images of rooms that show off their rose, fuschia and coral shades to remind you that everyone can use a little pink and a little hope.

charming nurseries

I spent a good portion of the afternoon sourcing childrens' furniture for a client, so why not end the day sharing images of adorable nurseries and kids' rooms?  So cute!
